It raised money, which is more than what the developers have done for Aqua
Mercy: Developers not caring for the characters and instead using her for their marketing campaign.

Aqua: Developers caring for their characters and putting every effort into creation an iconic strong, independent, layered and role-model character.


Hmm... Yeah, you're right. They did more for Aqua. They made her an actual person and not a two-dimensional whore to score some quick bucks. :catshrug

Mercy: Developers caring for breast cancer and though of Mercy.

Aqua: Developers caring for their pocket books and using any character they could to cross platform so people give them more money.

Fixed for you ;)

Again, the lack of research is really hurting your arguments.

OH BOY TIME TO RIP PPL APART, LEMME TELL YOU WHY AQUA IS SO MUCH MUCH MORE BETTER THEN MERCY, I CAN TAKE IT TO A WHOLE NEW LEVEL WITH THIS BUT NAH LEMME TELL YOU WHY

THIS:

Is better then Mercy.

Not only is she a Keyblade Master, who plays a huge role in the current events of the events of KH which isn't confusing at all, you just need to think about it instead of having a MOBA character that has what a animated short and a comic WHICH IS GENERIC TOO AT THAT(all MOBA games do this so talk about originality), OW is a fail(look at the playerbase), Aqua's also well developed from when she's introduced, she's a true saint that cares for her friends whom she cares for like family. She's willingly to go out her way to protect those she loves even it means sacrificing herself which she did, what has Mercy done, other then being a nurse who clearly isn't developed we don't see how she got to where she is, what DRIVES her actions etc., how she plays a role in this lore of OW.

While does use magic in her play style, it's unique at least. You start at level 1 and gain so many different abilities along the way, YOU GET TO go about how you want to play with different ways to tackle bosses etc. where as with Mercy it's literally a brain dead play style, you go in boost people and heal people, charge up your ult and rez ppl just like any other healer in any game also Mercy's skins are all fanservice to appease players.

So yeah I can come up with alot more reasons but I'm limiting myself to just 3 things, Lore, Personality and Gameplay.

Ok, you Kingdom Hearts people doing this on purpose aren't you? Why can you never explain who anyone is and why I should care as much as you obviously do? It shouldn't be hard. Reebs did it with Mercy with ease.

Instead it's all this vague subjective praise that means nothing to somebody that hasn't and won't play Kingdom Hearts.

Damnit people! I have no context for any of that. That stuff tells me literally nothing. Who is she? What does she do? What is her goal? What has she done to reach that goal? What achievements does she have? Is there perhaps some sexy fanart of her(instead of all this barbie doll looking CG)?

And I know somebody is going to tell me to go play Kingdom Hearts, so let me head that off by giving my reply in advance.

Lol, okay I gave her goal which was to protect her friends no matter even it means sacrificing herself which she did
also barbie doll please, there's fanart of her but why use fanart when THAT does not show character, when I see fan art of Mercy I dont think that's her in game that's someone drawing her in his/her vision, looses points and on top of the fact when was it required that a character needs to have "sexy" fanart to determine everything.

What does that mean though, I'm not trying to be a dick here, but how am I supposed to understand what you guys like about her if nobody ever explains anything?

She wants to protect her friends. Is willing to sacrifice herself. Got it. But why, how, and from what? I need context. You said she was well developed too. What did you mean by that? Specifically how is she well developed. Those are the things as a non-Kingdom Hearts fan I don't know.

It would help. These are waifu wars. You want votes? Sexy fanart gets the job done.

Angela Zeigler is a pure doctor driven by the tragic death of parents during the omnic crisis. She just wants to save people, ethically of course.

Jammin I'm not going to go in deep with aqua character and everything, that's not my job but @Sky to talk about her in full in deep, but if you want fanart of aqua well there's a lot out there.


( @Sky go, I trust you to provide some good fanart of her, after all this is your nomination )

That's the whole problem with this event in the first place, people vote for every single reason but "best wife material". They vote for the franchises, they vote for the members nominating, they vote for the posted pics and fanart.

You can describe the characters in lenghts and detail, but when the opponent has some random fanart which doesn't even accurately represent the character and why she was nominated, it doesn't matter.

@Reebi is doing her best, already posting several pictures. This time however, that does actually represent the character. Seeing as the source for the character doesn't have a story, and all they do with the character is give her boner-inducing costumes, even using her for promotional purposes to get some easy bucks.

Aqua is an actually well-written character, throughout the franchise ever since she disappeared. She's a role-model for (young) girls out there with her strength, bravery, independence and more. But, as @Asako said earlier, @Sky is the one who nominated her, and we're not here to do Sky's work. We're just pointing out the better future wife. If I wanted to campaign I would've nominated her (or another character) myself. :nod

A shell of a woman who uses her body for financial gains, or the actual three-dimensional character who has every trait in a woman that you'd want.

:hmm

Hey @Vici, he's making fun of Sombra

He's not wrong...

I mean he's wrong but at the same time, he isn't...



I was talking about characters from the games like LoL and Overwatch before the WR have even begun..

The problem I have with it this kind of characters is that we usually have short Bio and comics about them and that's all it's not comparable to characters from games that are story and often character driven where we have that character expand and can dwell more into they story..

Mercy is in one comics ( correct me if I'm wrong ) that isn't centered around her she just makes an appearance there.

Sombra has her own cinematic and was part of 2/3 Comics and was mentioned in other + " Reasons "

But even then putting aside my bias I give it to Sky and on why I have already explained..


Also, just to throw this in here. As I previously mentioned, Aqua made it into the Top 10 Fictional Video Game Characters, at number 5!

Dunno if she would make to my top 10 tbh :lambirb ( I will send my list today to you @xi0 )


The fact that Nameless one or The Boss wasn't in anyone list smh makes me not taking that list seriously :lambirb

Just because she has sexy outfits does not make her a whore. She is a better role model for women because she not only studied her ass to become a doctor, she made it to the head of surgery. Overwatch made her head of a department. In this day and age where men are leading, it’s great to see a woman as a leader. This is a more realistic story where people can identify than any story Kingdom Hearts can create.

It would be a more realistic story, yes, if it didn't involve the science-fantasy genre and time the game places in.

And again, her story doesn't mean shit when her character and the game don't revolve around the story. It's just a fucking biograph, nothing more. And don't come spouting back with your comics and shorts, because those are irrelevant. That's what your character needs, more out-sourced stories. Because on it's (and it's game) own it's back to nothing.

Her biography is better than Aqua’s. I skipped through reading it because it was boring and generic RPG. She also has interactions with characters in game. When she heals Brigette, she says “taking care of you, Brigette”, which she doesn’t say for others because Brigette is Torb’s daughter and Mercy is like a big sister to her. She even has sass and asks Reaper what’s wrong with him and tells McCree smoking is bad for his health.

Calling Kingdom Hearts' story generic while choosing a char from Overwatch.
Should I laugh or cry?
